Recently
I told my friends that I was heading to IKEA, I asked them what kind
of sweet treat I should get while I was there. One of my friends,
from a Nordic country, told me that IKEA candy had gone down hill.
She said that they no longer carried treats you might find in Sweden,
but carried IKEA brand treats instead. She claimed that these IKEA
brand sweets weren't the same. I'll be honest, this intrigued me even
more to try these new sweets out.

The first thing that impressed
me about this treat was the silly Swedish name. Let me make this perfectly
clear, I'm not making fun of Swedish people, their culture, or anything
about Sweden I have Swedish friends, I love Swedish culture, and if
I had the chance to live there I would really consider it. The thing
that makes many Swedish names funny is the way they're translated
into English. In most cases I'd say it's the English languages fault
more than the Swedish language.

This treat has a few other
pluses other than just a silly name. First of all the many different
shapes found in each bag is pretty amazing, I found at least 7 of
them. While there was two pairs that looked pretty much the same,
the rest were totally unique in shape. The only shape that confused
me at first was the white apple, I thought it might have been a pumpkin
at first. Colour and flavour wise they were also all unique, and that's
great.

The fault I found with
these gummies was the flavours. They do have a nice tart flavour,
but the flavours are a little weak. After eating a few I started having
trouble truly defining each flavour, and the tartness started to take
over my mouth. I also noticed that few of them seemed to have a slight
licorice taste, and that's just not cool.
